“In the morning, I usually get up between 7:40 A.M. and 7:45 A.M., and then I’ll brush my teeth, do my hair, and just throw on my leotard and my clothes and go to the kitchen.”

One of my proudest moments was probably 2013 Worlds because I proved to myself that I could do things that I didn’t think I could.

If anybody has a bad day, they’ll just come to my room because they know I’ll bring out the positive in everything, or I’ll make them laugh, or I’ll be just crazy.

Before a big event, I usually go to church and light a candle for St. Sebastian, who is the patron saint of athletes.

If I thought of gymnastics as a job, it would put too much stress on me.

We all have skills, I guess.

People comment on my pictures, ‘Stay healthy.’

Everything I do is in the gym, so I’m always in gym clothes. I’m excited to explore lifestyle clothes for a little bit.

I can only control what I do when I go compete.

The sport is called artistic gymnastics. So you do have to be a little bit of an actress.

For me to compete at the highest level, training and living a healthy lifestyle is an everyday focus for me, and I’m excited to be a part of the Everyday Awesome team!

At the end of the day, if I can say I had fun, it was a good day.

Every year, I think of Worlds as the big meet, but now, it’s the Olympics. I’m blessed to even have the opportunity to think about it and work for it.

I didn’t get the high school opportunity, but it always worked out.

Always work hard and have fun in what you do because I think that’s when you’re more successful. You have to choose to do it.

Everything is possible at any one competition.

If I disappoint someone, it’s their loss for putting that expectation on me when they don’t know me. I can’t control what they want.
